The family of a girl struck by a vehicle last week at 13th Street and Troupe Avenue says the 17-year-old has died.

Tierra Smith was taken off of life support on Friday afternoon, the family said.

Smith was one of four teens struck by a vehicle at 13th Street and Troup Avenue at about 2:30 p.m. last Friday.

Tamika Pledger, a community activist, was charged with four counts of reckless aggravated battery following the incident. She bailed out of jail earlier this week.

Witnesses said the incident happened as the teenagers had gathered to watch a fight in the street.

Pledger has spoken out on behalf of victims in the wake of recent drive-by shootings in Kansas City, Kansas. Election records show that she has filed to run for the Wyandotte County Unified Government Commission seat left vacant after Mark Holland was elected mayor.
